This contemporary folk-idiom will be very attractive to youth and children. The piece is greatly enhanced by the addition of guitar to the piano accompaniment. The use of the optional two part descant makes this very usable for youth choirs with the men taking the melody at that point and dividing the descant between soprano and alto.
